We are going to see more goals from the second round.

This Jubilani thing is baffling everyone.
Weather and the geographic height of SA isn't helping the cause either.

al-Sagar · #3 June 15, 2010, 11:20 AM

no body has taken an early advantage so far ....... by scoring two-fer, hattrick like klose or others did previuosly.

lets see if somebody from brazil or spain can do

*AsifTheManRahman* · #4 June 15, 2010, 12:09 PM

al-Sagar · #10 June 16, 2010, 11:00 AM

so after 1 round of games no body reaches two goals

al-Sagar · #11 June 16, 2010, 10:30 PM

Forlan takes an early lead .....

but how much his team can progress to give him more time to score goals ??

al-Sagar · #12 June 17, 2010, 08:12 AM

hattrick for higuain takes him to the top

yaseer · #13 June 17, 2010, 08:39 AM

Higuain has the edge now after the hat-trick. Also the way Argentina playing, looks like they are going to go far. It will give Higuain more opportunities.

al-Sagar · #14 June 18, 2010, 11:07 AM

no big movers so far today .....

can somebody from ENGLAND make a move ???

al-Sagar · #15 June 19, 2010, 09:31 AM

asamoah gyan jumps to level two with his second goal from penalty.

al-Sagar · #16 June 20, 2010, 02:58 PM

elano makes the jumps to level to before injury.

fabiano also into level 2 with two goals and still playing can he move to level 3 ???

20 mins remaining

al-Sagar · #17 June 20, 2010, 03:40 PM

al-Sagar · #18 June 21, 2010, 08:26 AM

Nadim · #19 June 21, 2010, 12:55 PM

Ronaldo actually did score in the morning, after almost two years of international futbol. Messi is doing everything right except for his finishing. Rooney and the rest of England are simply overrated, so no surprises there. Spain had a bad first game and Torres and Villa have only themselves to blame for not being able to put any in. Hopefully things will be better today.

al-Sagar · #21 June 21, 2010, 01:28 PM

some Spanish names are Due there very soon.

i hope they don't give me the trouble the Portuguese gave earlier today scoring so much and so frequently at on stage

al-Sagar · #22 June 21, 2010, 03:21 PM

David villa jumps to level two but should have scored the hattrick

al-Sagar · #23 June 22, 2010, 12:46 PM

Higuain not starting today ... ...

so he may not make a jump unless scores as a sub

Ashraf-FTP · #24 June 22, 2010, 04:57 PM

Only if Forlan scored today...

Messi still at 0. Tsk tsk, and we thought he was gonna win the golden boot. Dont think its happening. Messis problem- if he tries to finish, the shots are too weak. If he tries to shoot hard, he cant finish.

He also didnt get any fluke rebound chances and is also too closely tracked by other defenders. But the group stages were his best chance. He is gonna face harder teams each time from now on.

Robert Vittek joins higuain at the TOP
